Research Interests
- Microbial ecology of natural and technical systems.
- Biofilms and other spatially structured and heterogeneous systems.
- Activity and physiological adaptation of microorganisms under various conditions (starvation, stress, predation, symbiosis).
- Consortia of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and their physiological and metabolic interactions.
- Interaction of microorganisms with invertebrate hosts.
- Associations and interactions of bacteria and fungi.
- Metabolism of anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms (degradation potential, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites).
